    The most underrated songwriter yhe UK has ever produced. Probably the best though in the modern day. His words mean something to everyone and are so true to life and accompanied by the brilliant music he writes.

      Why always people say "underrated" about succesful artists? I mean,you and a lot of individuals are listening to him and his music decades after this and other performances and videos,and his recordings are still on stores,and he was playing at Jimmy Fallon's the other day,and you dare to call him underrated? C'mon,be less childish and a little More serious about other person's carreers. Not only #1s and tops mean success...
      The simple act of you and i enjoy his music,becomes him everything but underrated,i hate that word,i wrote it three times in this post of yours.

      @sergioaraya681 of course he's underrated. If he wasn't he'd be a household name among songwriters which he obviously isn't. It's only a few thousand of us that recognise him as being a brilliant song writer, therefore underrated

    I am a refugee from war torn Laos, came to US, Texas country hick town, caught Joe’s music randomly and his music has defined coming of age for me learning to speak English in the 80s and 90s. He integrated instruments and his haunting vocal that only worldly travelers could appreciate with the Latin percussions, brasses, and arrangements.

      I know the Country of Laos, my friend. I saw this Rockpalast live on TV back then. I lived in the GDR, East Germany. Must have been 40 Years ago. Still a fan.

    I remember reading the liner notes of his live album back in maybe 85 talking about how a young lady had burst into tears at the climax of that song. I just did too..amazing.

    You can see how personal and meaningful this song is to Jackson and how much it drains him to perform it. That's the soul of an artist.

    I was in the virtual world of Second Life this morning,
    when one of the musicians covered this...
    First time to hear it
    I am enthralled....
    and can't get enough
    Thank you for placing this choice selection on RUclips
    I am blessed, today !!

    Der Song begleitet mich seit über 35 vielleicht 40 Jahren und ist so oft schon ein Trost oder ein Kraftspender gewesen. Egal ob es ein Stück der schwulen Community ist, oder sonstwas. Sexuelle Orientierung sollte heutzutage eh keine Rolle mehr spielen. Das LIED an sich ist einfach ein totaler Hammer, genau wie "Real man".

    Reminds me of when I lived in The Hague in the Netherlands from 1981 to 1993. It was a good time. This album was big when I first got there. Still love it - even if I'm only a couple of years younger than Joe Jackson.

    LYRICS Music has charms they say
    But in some people's hands
    It becomes a savage beast
    Can't they control it
    Why don't they hold it back
    You see my friend and me
    Don't have an easy day
    And at night we dance not fight
    We need the energy
    If not the sympathy
    But I'm brutalized by bass
    And terrorized by treble
    I'm open to change my mood but
    I always get caught in the middle
    And I get tired of DJ's
    Why's it always what he plays
    I'm gonna push right through
    I'm gonna tell him to, tell him to
    Play us, play us a slow song
    Play us a slow song
    Play us a slow song
    Play us a slow song
    It's late, I'm winding down
    Am I the only one
    To want a strong and silent sound
    To pick me up and undress me
    Lay me down and caress me
    I feel you touch my hand
    And whisper in my ear
    Ask me how I'm feeling now
    And I want to get near you
    But I can't even hear you
    But this is a fine romance
    If we have to be so demanding
    We need just one more dance to
    Leave here with an understanding
    And I get tired of DJ's
    Why's it always what he plays
    I'm gonna push right through
    I'm gonna tell him too, tell him to
    Play us, play us a slow song
    Play us a slow song
    Play us a slow song
    Play us a slow song
    I get tired of DJ's
    Why's it always what he plays
    I'm gonna push right through
    I'm gonna tell him too, tell him to
    Play us, play, play, play
    Play us a, play us, play us
    Play us a slow song
    Play us a slow song
    Play us a slow song
    Play us a slow song

    never paid him much mind, I knew he was a good songwriter,I had Body and Soul on vinyl, but it didn't really move me the One time I played it. So, Steppin' Out was really the only thing I could say i was familar with...Until last week, i found "Look Sharp" and "Night and Day" on used CD's ($3 each at the goodwill). Put on Look Sharp when I got home and was immeditely happily surprised by the driving Guitar and Bass of "One More Time" and it only got better from there. I've been playing those records everyday, multiple times and can't get enough.
